This low power comparison microscope consisting of two separate stereo microscopes is ideal for forensic examination of bullets or two objects. It features variable magnification of 4x - 115x with the supplied eyepieces. A vice stage holder is provided that is ideal for holding bullets, coins or other samples on the dual rotatable mechanical stages. Two separate light sources are included which provide both top and bottom adjustable illumination. In addition items can be viewed under cross polarization to enhance a transparent surface with the included polarizer and analyzer. With the supplied trinocular body you can view on a video monitor or computer with the addition of a camera.

This microscope is great for viewing the comparison of fibers, bullets, wires, etc. It is ideal for criminal investigation and forensic sciences and offers outstanding value for the examination and comparison of two objects. It comes with a manufactures one year warranty and FREE ONE YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY for a total of two years.

Polarization Capable: Includes both Polarizer and Analyzer for viewing under Cross Polarization Conditions. This enhances microscope features such as tiny scratches, and also allows comparing polarization properties of specimens.

Each side of the unit is a fully functional microscope, with the ability to independently set the magnification and illumination.

Two Separate Specimens can be Studied Simultaneously with a Split Screen Viewing.

The Comparison Bridge brings Both the Beam Paths together. The two Images of the Objects under Examination can be Observed in the Field of View in Multiple Ways. They can be Observed together, Side-By-Side, Separated by a Thin Line that can be Moved to Either Side Allowing More or Less of Either Object to be Viewed. On the Extremes, the Field of View can show Only the Left Object or Only the Right Object. The Viewing also has the Capability to Overlap the Images, as well as Control the Amount of Overlapping.

Includes Two Photo Ports, One for Still Camera and One for CCD Video Camera!

Install the Included 0.4x Bottom Screw-On Reduction Lens to Decrease Magnification! Use this Lens to Obtain Another Set of Magnifications for Each Eyepiece Set.

Lowest Possible Magnification: Use the 10x Eyepiece and Bottom Reduction Lens: (0.8x Objective)(10x Eyepiece)(1.2 Bridge Factor)(0.4x Bottom Lens) = 3.8x Final Magnification. (Note: working distance will be long so some specimens with much height may not be focusable)

Largest Possible Magnification: Use the 20x Eyepiece and Largest Power Objective: (4.8x Objective)(20x Eyepiece)(1.2 Bridge Factor) = 115x Final Magnification.

Working Distance Approximately 105mm. Bottom lens 0.4x increases working distance.

Illumination

Two Different Light Source Types for Both the Left and the Right Microscope.

Coaxial Illumination Attachment: Includes Two Attachments that Screw to Bottom of Objective Housing. Has Opening on Side to Insert the Tip of the Fiber Optic Cable and a Special Mirror that Reflects the Light Down to Specimen Providing Coaxial Illumination. The Mirror Allows Light from the Specimen to Pass through it and into the Objective. Coaxial Illumination can be Beneficial for Viewing Deep Holes and also Smooth Surfaces.

Transmitted Light (Bottom Lighted) Stage Attachment: Includes a Special Device that Provides Lighting Under the Specimen. Also Known as Transmitted Light Illumination since can be Transmitted through Semi-Translucent Objects. Great for Examining Film Negatives, Currency Notes, Cartoons, Stamps, Fingerprints, Etc. The side mounted halogen box-light source is directed towards the mirror on the attachment, reflecting the light to the bottom of the specimen to be compared.

Head - Comparison Bridge

30 Degree Inclined Trinocular Head with Two Photo/Video Ports. One port for still photography (use trinocular lever to divert light). One port for live video (always has light going to this port).

Adjusts to the Distance Between your Eyes: 55 to 75mm InterPupillary Distance.

Diopter Adjustment on Both Oculars to Correct for Your Specific Vision Needs.

Adjustment screws on comparison bridge for adjusting the separation line width and separation line shape (if thicker on one end) on the split image view.

Vice Type Mechanical Holder Attachments: Great for Holding Objects of Various Diameters, such as Bullets, Coins, and Industrial/Engineering Materials. Object can be Rotated as well as Inclined for Ease of Examining the Surfaces. Sits Directly on Stage. Two Included, One for Each Stage.

Includes Camera Adapter: SLR Camera Adapter for Connecting either Film or DSLR (digital SLR) Cameras. Comes with two types of T-Adapters for different camera brands, one for Canon EOS DSLR series.

Includes: Two Round Glass Stage Micrometers, with 20mm Long Line Divided into 100 Divisions, 0.2mm Resolution for Precise Comparison and equalization of Magnifications between Left and Right Microscope. Use these Micrometers with the Magnification Adjustment Knob to Ensure you have Identical Magnifications!
